The BBQ Spot and a donation box?

Every week Campus California gets all different kinds of phone calls - some of them are exciting and some can be less exciting such as a request for removal of one of our donation boxes. But even such requests can have a happy ending and an interesting story behind it.
Visiting The BBQ Spot in Santa Rosa and meeting Rob was definitely one of these good stories.

Rob has a cozy Restaurant and is hosting one of our donation boxes; Unfortunately, Rob didn`t like the exact spot where our box had been placed, so he called us and requested it to be removed.

Coming to Santa Rosa, visiting Rob and his business and having a business discussion turned out to be very interesting for both sides. Rob was very curious about the non-profit world and the volunteers who do important sustainable development in Africa; He was also very eager to tell his story on how “building” the BBQ Spot has been a dream coming true for him. He liked the idea of how Campus California financially supports the fight against poverty and ended up understanding how important it is to keep the collection box at his restaurant.
We have, however, decided to relocate the box to the side of his business, where it would work best for Rob.

Been able to meet Rob, hear his story and also to keep our donation box at his place made this visit definitely worth it.

Thank you Rob for your great support!
